> DHH's writings have been very polarizing

He compared an entire race to wild animals that were, according to him, rightfully brought to full extinction in the middle ages.

What does he need to state in order for his ramblings to not be referred to by euphemisms? Call for concentration camps and gas chambers? Or will this also be an 'edgy' blog post? A 'spicy' tweet?

If your code in the end helps that people get hurt, it's on you too
